These are some really interesting formations.  I would suggest that you map out the formations with accurate measurements.  Take the compass readings of each formation as to the direction any / all faces, markings, and animals are facing.  This will give you a good plan to work from in your research.  Closer, better detailed photos of each formation's markings would help, too.

Hi Weekender.  I think you've happened upon a settlement of sorts. In your first pic with 2 walls,  wall to the right hand side resembles a sitting man.  Your second picture, a tortoise facing left. Your other pics have too much going on in them to pin point anything of true interest.  That last boulder looks like its resting quite dangerously on a couple of small stones - unnatural formation. Be careful there - looks like its put there to tumble over quite easily.  Its an area that I'd pay more attention to as someone has gone to quite a bit of trouble there.

That split rock or walls. There were made for a purpose I bet.  Is there a likely little campsite next to it? I sometime thinks they were used to shelter horses or slaves over night.  Or..were used for counting something - like sending sheep through them.

Then again could be that is the campground shelter itself... Is there water near by?

Looks to me like you got something there. I like the walls, throw a cover over the top and you got a campsite. the rock that looks has the crawl space with the pointer, pointing in sure is interesting. that rock also has some signs on it, probably alot of signs. Take alot of pics from different angles, with a high pixel count, so you can see the sings and marks. I could see a flower, bird head, animal head on that rock alone. There will be more. map out the area. Get a deep searching detector in there and cover that yard of signs. ThomasP

Picture #1801 is a monument in itself.
Look at it as a whole, don't try to put smaller things in places where they may not be.
sometimes the smaller things make up a larger picture and the large picture is what they want you to see.

It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share or not share my personal opinion.

I was going to ask if the dates shown on the pictures was the actual date they were taken. LOL
does the monument seem to send you in a specific direction?

What do you see here?
Which way is it looking?
Is it taking you anywhere near that horse in the other Thread?

I know the OP said "i can see turtles,faces,snakes,horsehead,rabbit, or lion.", but I think the first one looks more like a monkey wearing a helmet.

"Have you tried digging under all of those rocks with treasure signs?"

Everyone appreciates all the help we can get here, but remember the
 basic premise...

If you see a road sign..that says 'Las Vegas' 50 miles....would you give the advice to
dig under the sign to find Las Vegas?

See what I am saying?

Didn't know for sure what he had said.
He never had any serious input before.
Now that I do know ... I am sure he is on ignore for a good reason.

About the "Vegas sign"
He probably would. That is the mentality he seems to want to project.

Well..just got a chance to really study your pics. Wow!

No expert here  but ..I believe  you are getting the local news here, not national news.
Starting out - you might start with the long ground snake  or resting/sleeping guy whatever he might be. A couple faces or figures are looking at a face. That face is probably telling you to turn around and look at what it is looking at.
Since you are pretty new..that is something that  is always fruitful for me. Cause they are usually looking at something touched by the man of hand and thats a good way to start learning what  the markers look like.


I find the the rock propped up on smaller rocks real interesting and I would study what it is propped up on etc.

The second set of pictures great job following one to another!

The 1841  one looks like a sleeping bird to me.

1838 so very cool!  I love the artistry on it.


The last one.. I guess I would study the head of that and see if that is carving on there. That whitish rock in front of the tree  I've seen before  and it is not natural.


Aynway.. I would speculate that you would not want to go too far afield. Opinion only. Remember I am no expert.

I am so curious..is this east or west of the Mississippi? The figures are so similar to what I see here in the Southwest.

OD,
I kind of snickered at your snowy environment that you talked about the other day because I planed on going to one of my sites on Christmas eve.  Of course, a blizzard hit here in Oklahoma and now I'm snowed in.  Serves me right.  Oh well, another day.  Merry Christmas to you and all your family.

That first pic... still looks like a pig to me.  Tomorrow..a dog lol. I wonder what on earth that platform was used for. Perhaps it was filled with dirt after the usage was over.

I took the liberty of blowing parts up a bit..as there is a lot going on I think.

 

There seems to be a lot of information on the left there.
 

Happy to see it, because though it looks like many things,for example a priest... one interpretation could be one of the turtle king people looking to the left. I'm interested in examples of anthropomorphic turtles which I think  of as the Turtle king and his peoples. Turtles faces with hats/head coverings on basically. I do not know their meaning. Just interested in them.

Note the rounded sunlit part on the bottom of this end of the platform. It surely was made on purpose to indicate something.

HEY WEEKENDER!!!  MIGHT BE AN IDEA TO SINK A ROD INTO THE FILL DIRT ON THE FLAT SPOT, JUST TO SEE HOW DEEP IT IS,,, AND THEN GET A HOLD OF A TF-900 AND SEE IF THERE MIGHT BE A VOID ( ROOM ) UNDER IT,, AND METAL IT!!  MIGHT BE AN ENTRY OR TWO!!   td

Tesoro Dog,
Good thought on the iron bar.
Tried your suggestion on the platform, I went
across the top of it, solid rock all the way.
Nothing with my detector, had a lot of false iron readings.
back to the drawing board,. thanks,
-weekender
